AMERICANALMANAC (Jonah Adams) - Lunar water supply could limit moon settlements to small outposts, new research finds
A peer-reviewed study warns that the moon's finite water ice reserves would run dry in as little as two years for a million-person city without recycling, a reality check aimed squarely at SpaceX's ambitious lunar colonization plans. Astronomers Martin Elvis and Jonathan McDowell published their findings in the journal Frontiers in Space Technologies, and the […] The post Lunar water supply could limit moon settlements to small outposts, new research finds appeared first on American Almanac .
A peer-reviewed study warns that the moon's finite water ice reserves would run dry in as little as two years for a million-person city without recycling, a reality check aimed squarely at SpaceX's ambitious lunar colonization plans. Astronomers Martin Elvis and Jonathan McDowell published their findings in the journal Frontiers in Space Technologies, and the numbers cut against the grand visions of sprawling lunar metropolises that have dominated space policy conversations in Washington and Silicon Valley alike. Even under the most optimistic water estimates, a large settlement would face hard physical limits that no amount of federal spending or private-sector enthusiasm can wish away. The study lands at a moment when both NASA and…Open

A 41-year-old Florida woman faces attempted felony murder charges after she allegedly ignited a gas pump nozzle with a lighter, engulfing a stranger in flames at a St. Petersburg station, all because the victim refused to hand over cash.

The 2026 Emmy Awards delivered plenty of backstage moments worth noting, from Noah Wyle whistling at his wife to Matthew Rhys admitting he forgot to thank his partner in not one but both acceptance speeches. Mariska Hargitay hosted the ceremony on September 14, and the biggest repeat winners made the most of their time in the press room. Wyle, 55, took home Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for the second consecutive year for his role in "The Pitt," which also won Outstanding Drama Series for a second straight time. But the moment Page Six reporters caught backstage had nothing to do with trophies. Wyle spotted his wife, Sara Wells, taking pictures by herself in the backstage area. He whistled to get her attention, then walked…Open

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo arrived at MetLife Stadium just two and a half hours before kickoff against the Dallas Cowboys, battled parking-lot gridlock in his Ford F350, scored a first-quarter touchdown, and celebrated with a backflip his coach told him not to do. Skattebo pulled into the East Rutherford, New Jersey, parking lot at 5:50 for an 8:20 kickoff. NFL players are typically expected to arrive at least four hours early. That put the 24-year-old second-year back roughly ninety minutes behind the standard reporting window, stuck in the kind of traffic snarl that MetLife's lots are notorious for producing hours before game time. TMZ published a photo of Skattebo hanging out of his truck's driver-side window, and…Open

A Wendy's franchise in Edmond, Oklahoma, has revived the long-banned T-rex Burger, nine beef patties, nine slices of cheese, roughly 3,000 calories, and is daring customers to finish it in under ten minutes for a prize. The promotion launched September 10 at a single location, where a window sign reads: "Think you can take down the T-rex? Prove it." An employee at the restaurant told Fox News Digital that the challenge would eventually expand to Wendy's locations across the state, though no specific timeline was given. The burger rings up at nearly $30 and comes with fries and a drink, though challengers only need to polish off the burger itself to win. The employee hinted the prize includes a voucher for a free meal but would not…Open
